This is basically how it happened in the movie, right

#dc #dc comics #barry allen #the flash #wonder woman #diana prince #the new frontier #my art #I might've exaggerated it a bit but not much #Yeah full disclosure I'm never gonna be over New Frontier #10/10 one of if not best DC animated movies in years #Just for Diana and Barry's scenes alone #Those added like ten years to my life not even kidding #I love them so much <33

I think Grian's flavour of clinginess and inability to be separated from Mumbo is my favorite thing ever, because it's basically all built up around the fact that he needs to be ruining Mumbo's day every waking moment of his life or he goes a little bit stir crazy

He needs his proper dose of pestering this one guy he imprinted onto super hard half a decade ago or else he'll get malnourished and die

If Mumbo isn't either exasperatedly repairing whatever redstone Grian ruined or being dragged along by him to cause even greater problems then Grian crumples in on himself and implodes

#I love ot so much because of how it so perfectly reflects a certain aspect of my relationship to rhyme #if I'm can't pester my twin consistently throughout the day I start internally clawing at the walls and screaming #/mild exaggerating #rambling about blorbos #waffle duo #grian #mumbo jumbo

Will takes up more space in Mike's mind when he takes up more space in the shot, and would you look at that...

Before "the heart":

After:

As Mike turns initially the camera actually even pans with Mike and goes off of Will and is a closer shot, so they had a fine transition out of that interaction there, but when it cuts back it's in a wider angle and Will is back in the shot.

#byler cinematography #ily speech #stranger things #i will never shut up bc i think i'm so fucking funny: #“no WE love you” #shoutout forever to that one person who said will was rubbing his back and calling him petnames i think of u every time #bc it's not even that much of an exaggeration his hand was on his back and he called him “heart” #byler #mike wheeler #povs

proper reupload in the high quality this fantastic segment so deserves; eagle pig and duck bias notwithstanding, this will forever be my favorite variant of the fabled switcheroo (and a reminder that Daffy was first at his own game!) the committal on behalf of both characters--especially the sincerity of Daffy's feigned sincerity--really sets it apart

#that delivery of “don't you believe i'm a fish?” sounds so hurt and it's perfect #likewise i think there are few one-liners/toppers that make me laugh as much as 'i told ya i was a pig' #and that all knowing glance at the audience from Daffy doesn't feel obnoxiously smarmy or self aware #there's a friendly nonchalance to it. a very clear amusement and not in a way that undermines anything this segment is setting out to achie #again. my favorite buzzword: that sincerity! a sincere investment and amusement in watching Porky obliviously and endearingly make an ass #out of himself #and of course the cross dissolve and setup of the composition implying a story/sequence of events taking place within that time... #this short isn't my favorite P+D short--i still LOVE IT A TON but there are so many i revere--but i think it's one of the most definitive #if someone was looking to get a good understanding on their character dynamic this would be one of my immediate recommendations #i haven't had the bandwidth to spread my pig and duck gospel but please #watch Porky and Daffy cartoons #tangential but i've always loved the sound effect Treg Brown uses for Porky dropping the gun #good exaggeration/whimsy while also connoting Porky's stubbornness and that this stupid petty argument is enough for him to lose sight of #his motives and discard his murder weapon. all because of this joyously stupid argument. so i like the self awareness there with how obtuse #the sound effects are #because anyone who is not Porky Pig would have just shot him point blank #and that is everything i love about their dynamic and how Daffy's intoxicating charisma and ability to get people invested even affects the #very characters on screen #gee d'you think i ought to have said more about this scene #lt #duck soup to nuts #freleng #vid

I'm doing an art trade with the wonderful @tokyogruel and this is my piece for them!

They wanted "haruka and mikoto interacting Brothers style" and my mind immediately went to this... T2 art makes me want to sit them both down and sort their fucking shoes out!! but for now. at least One of them will no longer trip over 💜 nature is healing guys

#milgram #haruka sakurai #mikoto kayano #listen. I may have Exaggerated how bad mikoto's shoes are but do you really think they're going to be fixed any time soon??? EXACTLY #and don't get me started on haruka's shoes... oh my god this boy Will give me a migraine. I bet no one ever helped him with laces before :( #but not anymore!! I'm here to fix that!!! #anyways I had so much fun making this!! I really love lineless art - and the art process meshes with my way of drawing well I think ^w^ #I'd much prefer to think in shapes and blocks of colour than try to draw the perfect line 500 times and cry of frustration asdfghjkl #I Love these two interacting... I can't explain it in words so I hope I conveyed my feelings well!! they deserve to be happy ;w; 💜 #my art #ミルグラム

if sasuke was the main character then he probably would've been a LOT more sympathised with than he is now (which is to say rarely). like the narrative wouldn't even need to change to show his pains or 'his side of the story', bc it does that plenty. it's just that he is not the main character. and idk what it is about our human minds but we tend to sympathise with main characters automatically (unless ofc you go off the rockers insane and do something like obliterate almost everyone from the planet *cough* eren yeager *cough*)

an instance that comes to my mind where this does happen is with lelouch from code geass. while i don't agree with his character motivations, people generally do sympathise with him as he is the mc and as viewers we know he isn't inherently evil. sasuke's goal towards the end is slightly similar but ofc people love to hate him so they don't even try to understand where he is coming from.

my point is, most people while engaging with the naruto story don't read between the lines and so don't see how traumatised and in pain sasuke is and hence don't understand his character motivations. heck, they don't understand a single bit about him and so they automatically hate him, as he is supposedly going against the main character's goals.

which is really sad given all that he has been through.

#there are bajillion other reasons people hate him for #honestly i have lost track of the stupid reasons i have seen people give for hating him #and sometimes they just do without any reason *not even exaggerating* unfortunately #im like yeah go on hate him. you guys obv don't have enough brain cells to comprehend his character #they never understood him. and it's not like any kind of reasoning is gonna make them change their minds #and it's not like one needs to do a deep character analysis to understand him. it's literally right there. #all you have to do is stop worshipping konoha and its militaristic policies and the people who enact said policies. #and also the people who enforce those policies while subtly hating them but can't do anything bc it's dictatorship :) #but maybe that's too much to ask of them bc that would mean they would need to question their political views #and we can't have that right bc it's all just fiction in the end right? and fiction exists in a void :) (yes I'm being sarcastic jc) #like the amt of times i have heard people say “you don't need to take this so seriously it's just fiction” #umm you do know that fiction is inspired by real life events right??? #tldr: most people throw away their brains while engaging with nart media and have zero reading comprehension skills #this turned into yet another rant T T why am i like this AAAAAAAAAAA #sasuke #uchiha sasuke #sasuke uchiha #pro sasuke #pro uchiha #anti konoha

whenever i see the bonding moment scene i know we're not just being delusional. the other klance scenes can be written off as friendship moments unintentionally being gay but this one?? there is no excuse. it so fucking unnecessary - why are they holding hands why does lance have this fond expression on his face and why did jeremy shada say that line like that.... why does it feel so intimate... the scene lasts about ten whole seconds but it's gayer than all gay netflix dramas combined. the conclusion is that klance makes me ill

#i'm exaggerating for comedy but not as much as you may think #vld #voltron #cece.txt #klance

Yeah, people like to think that (adult) Jason’s snarky, cutting, and unapologetic post crisis characterization and the (mostly) “watered down”, docile personality he’s had from N52/rebirth onwards are irreconcilable, and that the shift was just an editorial decision with the intent of marketing him as a “likeable” hero.

While that last part might be true, have they considered that textually it makes perfect sense that being consistently in contact with an abuser just does that to a person. Wears them down until they feel like nothing but a husk, without any discernible direction or opinions of their own. If it isn’t completely burnt out yet, they (consciously or unconsciously) suppress that part of themselves that thinks independently either for self-preservation or to keep the peace. Considering anyone, even “mentally strong” people could fall victim to mental abuse, it’s actually pretty realistic imo.

#kelseethe #like what do you mean the shift ‘makes no sense’ #have you even met Bruce #he is a hell pit of darkness that sucks the life out of everyone who cares enough about him to put up with all of his problems #okay maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration but #even the most headstrong of people would wither away if they spent years trying to love and care for someone as volatile as him #that much is true #in other words I think Gotham war should be a wake up call for Jason and he should start doing everything in his power to fuck with Bruce #And then cut him off entirely #though nothing he could come up with would hold a candle to Bruce ‘God of torture’ Wayne #Bruce’s actions actually make perfect sense #You become so obsessed and fixated with torture and you genuinely glorify it #To the point that’s all you know how to do even when you’re trying to do good #this is magnificent I love it #and will continue to so long as Jason is fucking fuming after this #anyway even at his most extreme Jason was never a terrorist-level threat lol #like you know there’s a difference between #‘I'm going to do what I want and you're going to accept it. you can keep doing whatever it is you convince yourself is right though’ #and seeing someone who disagrees with you then spending years wanting and trying to destroy their ability to disagree as a whole #right? #and yikes. with the power and resources someone like Bruce has? so dangerous.

while I'm thinking about analysing the moomin stories today, the subject of teety-woo's identity in "the spring tune" is one of my favourite themes in the novels.

it's definitely not a stretch to suggest the outline of that story was inspired by tove jansson's struggles as a creative and a public figure. teety-woo serves as a stand-in for the countless fans who looked to her for inspiration, maybe validation, and her reasonable discomfort with being lauded as some sort of all-knowing idol because of it.

snufkin, as her sort of mouthpiece, sets a boundary that he's just another person in the world who happens to create art and shouldn't be looked to as a role-model. he's flawed, irritable, and a little-self-centred (arguably, through this interaction, sympathetically so). he doesn't have all the answers nor the stamina to help people who are practical strangers, and reminds teety-woo that "you'll never be free if you admire someone too much". a sentiment snukfin understands, not just because of his guilt over moomintroll's admiration of him as well, but also his Own admiration of moomintroll. (earlier, when trying to craft his tune, he imagines going back to moominvalley and playing it for him, and how he'd say that "it's a good one"). it's a message that's especially resonant in a world with an increasing problem with parasocial interaction.

but although that's an important lesson to take from the novel, snufkin Does in fact leave an impact on teety-woo. he's the one to give teety-woo his name, which finally gives him a solid identity - and once teety-woo understands his identity, he almost immediately becomes independent and stops needing snufkin's attention and approval. the message I get from this story is that, while we shouldn't treat other people - regardless of fame - as infallible figures to project ourselves and rely on to solve our problems, it's human nature to "scaffold" from others you admire.

snufkin's role in teety-woo's life was a positive one, but teety-woo needed to learn how to be his own person separate from the idealised version of him. it's impossible to exist without being an influence or source of inspiration to someone. it may not always be easy or what we want but, that's how it is.

#moomin #this one should be up there in public consciousness with ''the ugly duckling'' I'm not even exaggerating #also highly recommend jarvis cocker's reading of ''the spring tune'' his voice is SO soothing #any time I've seen someone interpret snufkin as uncaring towards moomintroll I'm like #(furiously tapping the passage where he's fantasising about playing him his new tune) #he cares so much. he wants his approval so bad it makes him look stupid

Further experimentation... A lot more errors with the face than with the body that's for sure but progress nonetheless

#ffxiv #tsuwamono seiei #Older version looked like a little bat #this is hard lmfao #The normal map for the body is so much more intense than the head and I don't know why? #Like I even tried to exaggerate the normal map and it just doesn't work #Not to mention the fact the colors don't line up for some reason despite using the *exact* same shading #Also the neck seam which... Just isn't going to be fixed ever I'm pretty sure #Lays on the floor and dies #This is gonna be so bad when I actually get to the last part of this I wanna do 😭

kink has really widened my view of what I consider "sex" and nothing makes that more obvious than when I see takes like "someone using a vibrator on you isn't sex". like 1. what is it then? and 2. getting called a good boy can be sex if you want it to be.

#that last bit is an exaggeration maybe but I'm trying to get my point across in a funny way #also it's not even that much of an exaggeration. I'm about to be controversial here but sex is 100% a social construct with no innate rules #edit: I guess following that logic it's someone's right to call two people using vibrators on each other ''not sex'' when engaging in it #but I'm going to retain my opinion that I find it a little silly personally
